Hello,

phpMyAdmin also comes with a setup script that can help you. It
involves creating a temporary world- writable config directory in your
phpmyadmin root, running [PHPMYADMIN_WEBROOT]/scripts/setup.php and
copying the newly created config.inc.php over the old one after you're
done with the setup (see this link for more info:
http://www.phpmyadmin.net/documentation/#setup_script).

If you have username and password for MySQL set, then use that as your
username/password combination. Else, chances are that default MySQL
privileged account info might possibly work ('root'/'' - that is 'root'
and no password). If that is the case, once you're in, set yourself a
password.
